Arms grinding steady rest is an apt design for holding long slender cylindrical jobs. This steady can be specially used in CNC as well as mannual grinding machine by it’s compatibility of programming & interfacing with the cnc system. Arms steady rests are designed to get optimum result in accurate grinding of long slender jobs .Arms steady rests are designed for getting high productivity by eliminating rejection and the setting time of manual steady rests.Arms steady rests are designed according to the customers’ requirement of job sizes. These are hydraulically operated steady rests. Side mounted and rear mounted cylinder designs are also available according to the bed design of machine.Arms steady rests are at par to the international standard by manufacturing & design yet very competitive in price ! These steady rests are dimensionally interchangeable with any other similar models available in the market.
The steady rest consists of 3 arms assembled in a steel body with carbide pads at the arms for holding the work piece. The centre one brings the other two arms in a circular movement to hold the center of the work piece .This helps to get the repeatability, consistency and centering accuracy The centre arm is operated by a hydraulic,pneumatic cylinder or servo motor.
